April is almost over, and the fragrant flowers of the human world have all faded, while peach blossoms start blooming in the mountain temples.
But in Northern Guanzhong, there are no peach blossoms in April, only bare branches, as the climate remains quite cold and the trees have just begun sprouting new buds.
Li Xianglu has finished sowing seeds; in just three days, sprouts one centimeter tall emerged, which greatly delighted her. Mr. Li credited the success entirely to his diligent conditioning of the garden.
In Guanzhong, during the non-busy farming season, people eat only two meals a day and skip dinner, but Mr. Li would not have it so; he insisted on eating something in the evening, even if just a bit of thin porridge, especially since Li Xianglu was at the age of growing and had previously suffered from malnutrition. Now was the time to nourish well, and Li Xianglu didn't oppose this, acknowledging that her health indeed needed attention.
